Ordinance: T JR' OR M

This ordinance amends the Oakland Municipal Code to increase sewer service charges. It was introduced in response to orders from the California Regional Water Quality Control Board to eliminate wet weather overflows from public sewers. The city has prepared a compliance plan to do so, which involves large public expenditures. The ordinance establishes a monthly sewer service charge of $8.45 for single family residences and sets formulas to calculate charges for other residential and commercial premises based on water usage or sewage flow measurements.
